The Living Pyramid

The pyramidal envelop can be adapted to different plot shapes, creating a dynamism that could be particular to each site. The height of the pyramid is proportional to the size of the plot of land, ensuring proper human scale structures that are well lit and ventilated.

The hollow core of the pyramid is crucial for the circulation and access to the units by vertical circulation and small bridges leading to the units’ entrances. The void enables as well controlled natural air circulation to minimize heating and cooling loads.
